| Summary | "The Titan" by Theodore Dreiser is a novel written during the early 20th century. The book follows the life of Frank Algernon Cowperwood, a determined and ambitious financier, as he navigates the complex social and economic landscape of Chicago after his release from prison. With themes of ambition, power, and the pursuit of wealth, the story explores Cowperwood's relentless quest to rebuild his life and forge his path in a city ripe with opportunities. At the start of the novel, we meet Frank Cowperwood as he emerges from the Eastern District Penitentiary, contemplating the end of his previous life in Philadelphia and seeking a fresh start in Chicago. Accompanied by his mistress Aileen, he sets out to capitalize on the burgeoning opportunities in the rapidly evolving city. The opening chapters detail his arrival in Chicago, his observations of the vibrant urban landscape, and his interactions with influential figures in the financial world, establishing Cowperwood as a charismatic and shrewd individual. This introduction sets the stage for his forthcoming challenges and ambitions as he aims to regain his status amid lingering social stigma from his past.
